Nope, it’s not a story about Newt’s three wives…though I can’t help but wonder who let the story get headline status on Newt’s site. For a guy who has been in three marriages, this kind of headline is more than a bit ironic. Never mind context. (Ironically, it’s not the candidates with polygamy in their […]
What’s $10,000 got to do with anything? Newt dodges a bullet, and Romney makes the wrong bet.
Mitt Romney knows that $10,000 is a lot of money to the average person. Compared to what he’s worth, though, it’s a small potatoes. Why, then, if he knows this, would he throw out such a big bet, especially on national television? Simply put, Romney is starting to feel the heat. In a moment of […]
Rick Perry: When a “back of the napkin” campaign becomes reality.

With the Primary season about to begin and the money starting to dry up, time is short and the candidates know it. That translates into […]
Hanover Economic Debate: A different debate, a similar result.
This debate was different. I tried and tried and tried to write a post about Bloomberg’s “Hanover Economic” Debate on Tuesday night, but just couldn’t do it. I started watching it late, from the beginning, and by the time I finished, even the pundits had packed up. The immediacy of the event had passed, and any […]
